An unlikely adventurer, a Christian college professor named Michael Jernigan, takes a classroom full of students on a fascinating journey through an ancient Cambodian text called The Five Crossings. The mysterious lessons on life, art, philosophy, and religious truth are explosively punctuated by an all-too-realistic terrorist plot in southern California. Because of his rare language abilities, Jernigan is called upon to translate some intercepted messages and finds himself thrust into an incredibly tense situation where thousands of lives are at stake.
